Update 2.0 broke launching. Try the fix here: https://lemmy.ml/post/5553816
I'm using 2.0 with no issues launching.
I'm on Ubuntu 22.04 using lutris. I also have my game installed on an ext4 partition. Too many different variables there to try to make any general assumptions on why it isn't launching for them.
Updates might be the culprit. Next to "play" in Lutris there's a dropdown menu with "show logs" - try that and see why it fails.
Anyway, you should just try installing the game on your Linux partition. I don't remember the details now, but using Wine with games on NTFS partitions used to be discouraged.
From what I remember Linux does t like writing to NTFS formatted partitions, that was the case a few years ago, but maybe that changes since the new NTFS code was merged into the kernel "recently".
There's a non-zero probability of linux borking your NTFS drive, try to move your stuff to a proper partition, also its far less likely you'll find weirdo issues.
Do you use the GOG version? If so, they changed something about the drm recently, you need to remove some files from the game directory. Then it'll start working again. Let me check if I can find the reference to that...
Found it:
<...>\Cyberpunk 2077\r6\publishing\x64
Create a copy of the “GOG” subfolder next to the original one.
Rename the copy of the “GOG” folder to “null”
Go to:
<...>\Cyberpunk 2077\bin\x64
and delete the:
GameServicesGOG.dll"

I used the install script that install the gog app first. No issues with modded 2.0
